I found a bike

My next stop will be the old bill. My question is should I take the bike along with me to police station and hand it over or am I best just telling them i've got it and leaving my details? As i mentioned the bike is not really worth much, i wouldn't want to have to go back in three months time if no-one claims it but i'm more than happy to keep it and wait for a phone call.? Anyone have experience of police lost-and-found?

Take it to poleeeeeees station. If no-one claims it within a month you can come and take it back again.

Although last time I tried it with an old Bianchi frame I found, they claimed no knowledge of it when I returned. So they'd either kept it and taken it home (possible) or skipped it (likely, since it looked a bit scruffy). I was gonna do it up.Bah

They also had a reynolds 853 racer in there. I wanted it. Lots. Should've have gone and claimed that instead. Steel is reel after all.
